This is my husband's third occcurence and he will not give up fighting no matter how hard the treatment is. We have so much to do yet in life, travel, see our grandkids grow up, and love and be with each other. The treatments and surgeries are always bad but it will be worth it in the end. You can look back and say Ha Ha I cheated death once more.
